Drug Interactions: Mechanisms, Assessment and Management Strategies

Abstract

Drug interactions represent a significant challenge in modern medicine, as the concomitant use of multiple medications is prevalent in-patient care. Understanding the mechanisms behind drug interactions, accurately assessing their occurrence and adopting effective management strategies are critical to optimizing therapeutic outcomes and minimizing adverse events. This research paper provides a comprehensive review of drug interactions, focusing on their underlying mechanisms, methods for assessment and the implementation of management strategies in clinical practice.
